Equitus ARCXA operates as a non-intrusive Semantic Control Plane (SCP).

 





Equitus ARCXA semantic control plane uses a triple store architecture (an RDF-based graph database) to create a unified, context-aware semantic layer that operates as a non-intrusive Semantic Control Plane (SCP). It sits above legacy systems to govern data transformations, lineage, and mapping without requiring a rip-and-replace of underlying ETL pipelines.

Instead of organizing data into traditional relational tables (rows and columns), a triple store structures information as discrete semantic statements made of three components:

{Subject} ----> {Predicate} ---->{Object}

  • Subject: The entity being described (the node where the relationship starts).

  • Predicate: The relationship, property, or governing rule connecting the entities (the edge).

  • Object: The value, entity, or outcome receiving the relationship (the ending node or attribute value).

ARCXA  Triples generate "semantic reasoning" which improves intelligence Over Relational Databases


Inference & Graph Reasoning: Triples allow ARCXA to infer implicit relationships.



  • For example, if (User A -> belongsTo -> Unit 1) and (Unit 1 -> hasAccessTo -> Project X), the control plane infers that User A can access Project X.

  • Dynamic Schema Flexibility: Relationships and rules can be added without restructuring underlying tables or database schemas.


  • Interoperability (RDF / SPARQL): Uses standard semantic web specifications (URIs/IRIs and SPARQL queries) to bridge disparate enterprise systems into a single control plane.


Systems Integrators (SIs) often face scope creep and integration failures during tier-one migrations (e.g., SAP, Salesforce, Oracle, legacy ERPs) due to hardcoded, un-tracked field mappings. Incorporating ARCXA into a GitHub + Docker + CI/CD DevOps lifecycle establishes an automated, audit-ready bridge for SIs.


Key Components of the DevOps Architecture

  1. GitHub (Semantic Version Control & Ontology repo):

    • Hosts mapping definitions, R2RML rules, systems-of-systems contracts, and ontology schemas as code.

    • Versioning ensures every transformation rule and domain policy change goes through PR reviews and approvals prior to deployment.

  2. Docker (Standardized Containerized Execution):

    • Microservice services (arcxa-coordinator, arcxa-shard, and arcxa-model-service) are packaged in lightweight container images.

    • Provides consistent local dev/testing environments for SI engineers without cloud infrastructure dependencies.

  3. CI/CD Pipeline (Automated Data Contract & Migration Validation):

    • Triggers automated dry-run validation using arcxa-cli or APIs on code updates.

    • Runs synthetic data tests to detect schema drift, semantic breaking changes, and policy non-compliance before pushing to production targets.


  • Step 1: Automated Discovery & Profiling. Containers query Tier-1 source schemas via ARCXA connectors. Hybrid AI evaluates statistical patterns and semantic meaning to infer default target mappings.

  • Step 2: Version-Controlled Mapping. SIs refine mapping rules in GitHub. Pull requests run CI validation to check against contract policies without touching raw production environments.

  • Step 3: Continuous Transformation Governance. Deployed via Docker/Kubernetes, ARCXA tracks transformation lineage at the rule level and attaches cryptographic audit records for regulatory compliance (SOX, HIPAA).








  • Connect through From Users to ETL Migration Layer Programs -

    Physical ETL & Execution Planes

    Each platform exposes metadata differently:

    • Informatica: PowerCenter repositories (Java-based, XML DAGs, mapping metadata via REST API). ArcXA connects to the repository to extract source→target column mappings, transformation logic, session configs.

    • Fivetran: JSON connectors config + state metadata. Lightweight; ArcXA reads connector definitions to reverse-engineer pipeline DAGs.

    • Altran: ETL engine logs + DAG definitions (typically XML or proprietary format). Requires parser-per-dialect.

    • Collibra: Already a catalog—but a passive one. Stores business glossary terms, ownership, lineage declarations (often manual), classifications. Doesn't enforce them.
